      @fateknollogee I have used Dashlane for years without a single issue. What kind of support do you need from a password maanger?

        When I bought Dashlane, it had some kind of bug & wouldn't run in Chrome on Linux (it was fine in Windows), it would just crash the browser.
        Anyway, it took 'em like 2 months to fix.

          @fateknollogee Ok weird. I guess i have been lucky, never an issue yet. I use Fedora and Windows 10. I mostly use Chrome but Firefox some too.

            @fuznutz04 I use Fedora and OpenSuse. Both are nice.

              Oh, and RDP I RDP from my MDP all the time now to Windows boxes. What is a good app for that on the Linux side?

              Reminna

              Excellent. And what about the times where I would want to remote into my Fedora Desktop? What RDP style app is best for that?

              If you mean connecting TO your laptop, I would suggest an XRD + X11VNC setup. I tested it with Linux Min 19, and it worked well enough. That setup might work on other linux distros.

                I rarely need to remote into my desktop, but when I do, I use ScreenConnect.

                I often will remotely SSH into my desktop via ZeroTier IP.

                  So you just have a remote ScreenConnect Agent running all the time on your desktop, right?
                  What do you SSH into the desktop for?

                      Because my desktop is in a location that has a trusted IP address.

                      Basically from my house, I can get into damned near any client system. So when roaming, I SSH into the desktop then out to whatever I need to admin.

                        I'll see if I can get it working on Fedora 28, then.

                          I found this but never used it when I first switched and was worried about ScreenCOnnect. But then ScreenConnect worked, so I didn't care.

                            I haven't had good luck with that one. I tried it again recently, too.

                                I still find it easier to use a Windows VM. Nothing wrong with that if it makes things more efficient. Most hardware is already licensed for it anyways, so there's rarely a cost associated with it.

                                I'm down to about once a week on launching my Windows VM on my desktop.

                                It was definitely always on when I first switched a year and a half ago.

                                I do a lot of administration tasks specific to Windows, meaning Windows Server roles... AD/DNS, DHCP, DFS+R, Hyper-V, Windows client management, AD CS (PKI), the list goes on. I need my MMC console with all those RSAT tools (yes, I do realize that says tools twice).

                                WAC works great on Linux.

                                Its still needs need Windows. I have it installed on my Windows 10 VM that I access from my Fedora Host.

                                I have WAC installed on a server VM on a DC licensed host. It's been great, but hasen't yet taken over everything I use the Win10 VM for. It's doubtful it ever will in such a Windows heavy environment.

                                That's what we are doing, but we've found it to work quite well, we are liking it.

                                  I often will remotely SSH into my desktop via ZeroTier IP.

                                  So you just have a remote ScreenConnect Agent running all the time on your desktop, right?
                                  What do you SSH into the desktop for?

                                  Because my desktop is in a location that has a trusted IP address.

                                  Basically from my house, I can get into damned near any client system. So when roaming, I SSH into the desktop then out to whatever I need to admin.

                                  We do the same, but with secured Jump boxes. So even from my home desktop, I SSH into that for everything.

                                    Oh, and RDP I RDP from my MDP all the time now to Windows boxes. What is a good app for that on the Linux side?

                                    Reminna

                                    Installing like this:

                                    dnf copr enable hubbitus/remmina-next
dnf upgrade --refresh 'remmina*' 'freerdp*'

                                    I get this:

                                    Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'hubbitus-remmina-next', disabling.

                                      @fuznutz04 I normally use the built in Remmina.

                                        @scottalanmiller I installed from the netinstall. Is this supposed to be included? I am not seeing it anywhere.
